what are using adobe for? if it's just to print to pdf format, try primo pdf. it's free and i have it installed on my ultimate 7 x32 system and it works great. i use adobe reader 9 to open the file.i'll still have try it at home on my win 7 ultimate x64 system.

Hey for those that have Adobe professional 8.0 installed on Windows 7, be sure to install the 8.1 update, restart your computer, then go to DEVICES AND PRINTERS on the right hand side of your start menu. Choose Adobe PDF and right click to select "printer
properties." Be sure to select "printer properties" not "properties". Select the ADVANCED tab, then select the button called "print directly to printer". This will solve the issue if you were unable to print to the Adobe printer. I tested it and it worked!

I am working with Acrobat 8 Standard on Windows 7 x64 for this Solution.

I copied the link below from Adobe website. If it does not work here in my response, just go to there website and do a search for the fileaname. You can download the adobe 64 file below from their website. You do not need the CD.
Then rename the file by removing the 64 from it. When the install window comes up asking for the adobepdf.dll file, you must have already renamed the adobepdf.dll_64 to adobepdf.dll(just remove the underscore and the 64 from the filename). Select
the newly renamed file and it will finish the installation and it will load an Adobe PDF printer. I have run into one small issue. When I try to print a photo file (i.e., .png, .jpg, .tif, .bmp) to .PDF, the printer just does not work.
Also, I cannot not run the update from the HELP menu. I am going to attempt a manual update from the website to 8.1 first and see if that fixes these two issues. I can print to .PDF from other higher priority applications, but I thought I would
mention the photo app issue.

Windows 7 64-bit

Manually extract the file "adobepdf.dll_64" from the data1.cab file before installing Acrobat. When the prompt appears, navigate to this file and select
it.
